Another dilemma I’m having with my room design is combatting SBIR nulls. My design currently calls for 1723 S Monitors to be placed on top of 1723 1V Subwoofers due to space constraints. The rears of the cabinets are about 13″ from the wall when I align the front of...
Due to my space limitations the 1723 Center S is the largest speaker I can consider putting in that position. However, would there be any downside for opting for the full-size 1723 Monitors for Left and Right? I’m leaning towards running all the LCRs sealed to minimize wall clearance issues...
Say I was looking for an amp to power a pair of 1723 S Monitors to their maximum potential (moreso for dynamic range than maximum SPL in case that matters). The specs say these speakers can handle “up to 300W RMS @ 4 Ohms”. Should I be looking for an...
Hi Arendal, It’s a long shot but I’m wondering if you could treat us with the tiniest of hints of what might be coming down the pipe in 2024. Are they still thinking of new models of height speakers? Any design revisions of 1723 speakers or subwoofers? What’s cookin’? :D
I’ve seen a few sample photos where the 1723 Center is laid flat without any kind of tilt. While they do make tilting stands like the IsoAcoustics Aperta 300, they add considerable height to an already tall speaker (in this case adding another 3.5″ with the tilt engaged). Based on...
Now that I’ve upgraded my 5.1 setup to a full 7.1.4 Atmos configuration, next up is replacing my old Polk PSW505 subwoofer. One concept I’m REALLY struggling with when it comes to subwoofers are the notions of room size and pressurization. Almost every subwoofer has a recommended room size, and...
Hi Everybody, I’ve hit a snag in my layout planning and need some advice. Attached are some pictures of my room and a SketchUp of what I plan to do. I’m 70% confident that sticking with a 5.1 layout would result in better sound, but the part that isn’t sure...
I’m wondering what trade-offs there are, if any, of ordering from the Outlet apart from the fact that another customer used the speaker before you did. Particularly the ones returned following a review. Is the packaging re-done to be identical to a new purchase? Are the speakers cleaned to remove...
Hi Arendal, I have a MiniDSP EQ module connected inline to my current subwoofer and I came across a recommendation that a High Pass Filter (HPF) be configured to drop off any frequencies below the subwoofer’s “tuning frequency” for best performance and to protect the driver. Would you be able...
Minor suggestion: could the “from” address for community forum subscription emails be changed to something unique? I’ve noticed that post notifications as well as direct emails from Arendal Support all come from the same “sales@arendalsound.com” email address which makes mailbox cleanup & maintenance a bit difficult.
